Allen Jackson

Air Date: December 2nd & 3rd - Why is it wise to fear the Lord? What benefit does it bring to our lives? Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how increasing our respect, reverence, and commitment to the Lord will strengthen our relationship with Him, and our faith. In contrast, if we choose to live life on our own terms, God's presence in our life will increasingly diminish. Pastor Allen lists some of the benefits that come from fearing the Lord. God has something good for us, but we have to choose to give Him first place.

Let's Pray - The Lord's Prayer

Prayer matters because evil is in the world and we cannot outthink it or overcome it by the force of our personal will—we need a power greater than ourselves! Thankfully, Scripture gives us blueprints for prayer: Jesus prayed to His Father, so we do as well; and the demons tremble at the name of Jesus, so we pray in His name. When we fail to pray we leave the doors of God’s possibilities closed. But when we commit ourselves to daily, workmanlike prayer, the outcome can benefit all of us. So, “Let’s pray!”

Let's Pray - Prayer 201

Prayer is a powerful response to life’s challenges. It opens doorways of God’s possibilities because God hears and responds to the prayers of His people. Prayer is an invitation to each of us to cooperate with His purposes, even when we’re not sure of the outcome. When we interact with the people in our lives by saying “Let’s pray,” we interject invitations to walk with God in a non-threatening way. Pastor Allen reminds us that the same power in the prayers of the Old Testament prophets and the New Testament disciples is available to us today.

America - The Prodigal Returns

Governments don’t keep us free, only God does. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual awakenings that changed the course of our nation’s history. As today’s Church repents and returns to God, God will begin to awaken us and will move on our behalf. Pastor Allen discusses several American heroes whose faith had a profound impact on the people and circumstances around them. He encourages us to live with a similar commitment to godly character and purpose. The only thing that holds evil at bay is the gospel of Jesus Christ, and we’ve been entrusted with taking this good news to our generation. What will our response be?
